步骤

Prep

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F, ensuring one rack is positioned in the top third of the oven. To a medium bowl, add all listed fajitas veggies ingredients, seasoning with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and ground black pepper as desired. Toss to combine well, then transfer to a large, rimmed baking sheet. To the same bowl, add all listed chili lime chicken ingredients, seasoning with 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt and ground black pepper as desired. Toss to combine well, then transfer to the same baking sheet as the fajitas veggies. Do your best to spread everything into an even layer so nothing is especially overcrowded on the pan.

Roast the sheet pan chicken fajitas:

Transfer the sheet pan to the oven. Roast 10-12 minutes, just until the chicken is cooked through—the chicken should be juicy + tender and the veggies should be crisp and colorful. If desired, finish under the broiler for a crispy, browned finish a la sizzling skillet fajitas. In the last 3-4 minutes of roasting, turn the broiler on its highest setting and broil, carefully rotating the pan halfway through, until the chicken fajitas are browned and slightly crisp. Remove from the oven and set aside for serving.

Chicken fajitas bowls prep:

Meanwhile, as the chicken fajitas roast, prepare any bowl fixings you’d like. I always whip up a quick batch of avocado crema and char up some sweet corn.

For charred sweet corn, place husked ears of corn directly over a gas burner. Light to a medium-high flame and cook about 2 minutes per side or until as charred as desired. (If you do not have a gas stove, you can also char the corn on an outdoor grill, in a grill pan, or under the broiler.)

Assemble chicken fajitas bowls with avocado crema and fixings of choice

Build your chicken fajitas bowls as desired. I like to swoop the avocado crema directly along the sides of the bowl, then create a base of rice, beans, and sheet pan chicken fajitas. Finish with other toppings, as desired, like fresh tomatoes and/or salsa, shredded cheese, shredded lettuce, lots of fresh cilantro, and a good squeeze of lime juice. Serve immediately. Enjoy!
